What is a rich man? Donate to the public welfare to be rich

什么才是有钱的富人？

捐助公益才算富人

Money is a good thing, can make people live well and can make people feel satisfied. However, if you make money and only enjoy it, it is "miser" and "rich and inhumane". Many rich people in China are quietly donating to the public welfare. Mr. Pan Shiyi has done a good job, adding a beautiful scenery to the society. The real "rich" are those who don't forget public welfare when they are rich.

-------Zhuge Changqing

At the end of last year, when summarizing the work of the company and myself in 2006, we found that all indicators were well completed and the achievements were very satisfactory. If we had to find out the unfinished goals, I felt that we had not completed the goals we had set at the beginning of 2006 in terms of charity and public welfare for the society. According to our financial statistics, the donation in this regard is only 6.3 million yuan, and a small part of it is not satisfactory. At the beginning of this year, Zhang Xin and I discussed the goal and direction of our public welfare undertakings, and felt that we should devote more time, energy and money to charity and public welfare undertakings. In the process of doing these things, we should also make progress in our spirit. In order to make these charitable and public welfare undertakings achieve better results, we decided to focus on education, because changing people's minds and changing people's hearts are the most important, and these must be achieved through education.

In the first half of this year, we donated another 2 million yuan to build a new teaching building for the school in Tianshui, Gansu Province. After the completion of the new teaching building, the school has rapidly increased from more than 100 students to 1530 students. Many children have come to school from the mountains of Qinling Mountains for 10 kilometers and 20 kilometers. On the road, students are usually led and protected by middle school students. They are very hard and unsafe. At noon, there is no canteen or dormitory in the school. Students can only sit in the classroom and eat the dry food from home. The mayor of Tianshui City attaches great importance to this matter and is actively applying from the Development and Reform Commission for funds for dormitory construction. I promised the mayor that we would donate the same amount of money as the government invested, and we must thoroughly solve the problem of accommodation and canteen for children here. At the same time, Zhang Xin has also served as the director of the "Children's Virtue Foundation". We will also invite teachers and principals from these mountains to Beijing for training, study and visit. We will continue to do such activities.

I learned from the "Charity 1+1" program held by CCTV this year that as long as children under the age of six can't hear sound, as long as they have a hearing aid of 2000 yuan, most children may have language ability. At the scene, I donated hearing aids to 500 such children. The name of this activity is very beautiful - "Let love hear".

Last month, under the leadership of Niu Qingshan, head of Chongwen District, and Gao Guiqiang, deputy head of Chongwen District, we went to Huangnan, the poorest state in Qinghai Province. This is a state close to my hometown Gansu. There is only one complete ordinary school that speaks Chinese in the five counties of the state. Other schools are ethnic schools that only speak Tibetan. This school has 1500 students. When our motorcade entered the school gate, all the students and teachers stood in line on the muddy road to welcome us and applaud us. The students who come to school here are farther than Tianshui in Gansu Province, not only tens of kilometers, but also hundreds of kilometers. Since the school has no dormitories, most of its students live in the homes of residents in the county. The school has two teaching buildings, one is newly built and the other is already dangerous. The government does not allow people to enter again.

There is also a primary school in Huangnan Prefecture. In a county town with an altitude of 3600 meters above sea level, the school has no walls, only a soil toilet. The pupils living here at night are afraid to go to the toilet, so they use the dormitory and the surrounding classroom as toilets. There is an urgent need to build a toilet and a wall here, so that these pupils can no longer be afraid. Guangming Primary School and Huiwen Middle School in Chongwen District decided to help these schools in terms of teachers. President Rui of China Satellite Communications Corporation also decided to spend a huge sum of money to enable every village in Qinghai to have phone calls and watch TV. Of course, this project also includes the poorest Huangnan Prefecture.

When I was in Huangnan Prefecture, I talked with Zhang Xin on the phone. After discussion, we also decided to contribute to help build this middle school and primary school. In addition, we also established a 2 million yuan reward fund in Huangnan Prefecture. This time, the governor of Huangnan Prefecture and the director of the Education Bureau came to Beijing to establish contact with the schools in Chongwen District, and at the same time, they also discussed with us the next specific plan and implementation details.

Although we are already doing these public welfare undertakings, I think it is just the beginning and we have done too little. But I want to take this opportunity to build a bridge so that more people living in rich cities in the east can learn more about those people in the west who have poor living conditions and have not been improved. Let people in the west know about the east. Let's do our best to help those in difficulties and children in need of education. Because we are a big family, we cannot be separated. We should support and care for each other, rather than let the gap and gap extend indefinitely.

In recent days, many colleagues in our company are helping to do this, including today's simple ceremony and the next step of the implementation of this project. We are all doing our best to give our love. After hearing about the event, many media friends took the initiative to participate in and report on it. We were deeply moved by this. But at the same time, we also have a colleague with strong working ability resigned. His reason is very simple, that is, you donated so much money to others, why not give me a raise? His mind is unbalanced. Zhang Xin felt very uncomfortable about it. Indeed, his resignation has also had a certain impact on our work, but I think that what we have done is meaningful, and I think it is right that we should focus on education, especially the education of virtue, and we will stick to it for a long time. I believe that as long as more of us pay attention to public welfare undertakings and participate in public welfare undertakings, our world will be more peaceful and better, and our own spirit will also make greater progress.

   钱是好东西，可以使人生活得很好、可以是人感到满足，可是，如果赚了钱，只顾自己享受，那就是“守财奴”“为富不仁”，我国的很多富翁，都在悄悄的捐助公益，潘石屹先生做得很好，为社会添了一道亮丽的风景。有钱不忘公益，才是真正的“富人”。

                       ------- 诸葛长青

　　去年年底，在总结公司和我个人2006年的工作时，发现各项指标都完成得不错，取得的成绩也很让我们满意，如果一定要找出没有完成的目标的话，我感到在为社会做的慈善和公益事业方面没有完成我们2006年初预定的目标。据我们财务的统计数字，这方面的捐款仅有630万元人民币，而且其中有一小部分的使用效果也不尽如人意。今年初，我和张欣商量我们做公益事业的目标和方向，觉得我们要把更多的时间、精力和资金投入到慈善和公益事业中来，在做这些事情的过程中，也让自己的精神得到进步。为了让这些慈善和公益事业达到更好的效果，我们决定把重点放在教育上，因为改变人的思想，改变人心是最重要的，而这些都要通过教育来实现。

　　今年上半年，我们又为甘肃天水的学校捐款200万元修建了一栋教学楼，这座新教学楼建成后，学校从原来的100多名学生迅速增加到1530名学生，许多孩子们都是从秦岭的大山里走上10公里、20公里路来这里上学。在路上，一般就由中学生带领和保护着小学生相伴而行，他们很辛苦，也不安全。中午学校没有食堂，也没有宿舍，学生们只能坐在教室里吃从家里带来的干粮。天水市的市长对此事很重视，正在积极地从发改委申请建宿舍的款项。我对市长承诺，政府投入多少钱，我们就再捐同样多的款，一定要彻底解决这里孩子们的住宿和食堂问题。同时，张欣还出任了“儿童美德基金会”的董事，我们也会请这些大山里的老师、校长们来北京参加培训、学习和参观。这样的活动，我们还会一直继续坚持做下去。

　　我在今年中央电视台举办的“慈善1+1”节目中得知，六岁以下听不到声音的孩子，只要有一部两千元的助听器，绝大部分孩子就可能具备语言能力。在现场，我为500名这样的孩子捐助了助听器。这项活动的名称很美——“让爱能听到”。

　　上个月，在崇文区区长牛青山和副区长高桂强的带领下，我们一行到了青海省最贫困的黄南州。这是一个紧靠着我老家甘肃的州，全州五个县仅有一所讲汉语的完全的普通学校，其他学校都是只讲藏语的民族学校。这所学校有1500名学生。我们的车队进入学校门口时，所有的学生和老师都站在泥泞的路上列队欢迎我们，向我们鼓掌。来这里上学的学生比甘肃天水的更远，不仅几十公里，最远的达到几百公里。由于学校没有宿舍，学校学生们大部分住在县城的居民家中。学校有两座教学楼，一座是新建的，另一座已经是危房了，政府不允许人再进去。

　　黄南州还有一所小学，在海拔3600米以上的一个县城里，学校没有围墙，只有一个土厕所，晚上住在这里的小学生害怕，不敢上厕所，就把宿舍和教室周围当成厕所。这里急需建一个厕所和围墙，让这些小学生不用再担惊受怕。崇文区的光明小学和汇文中学决定在师资力量上帮助这些学校。中国卫星通讯公司的芮总也决定拿出一笔巨款，让全青海的每一个村都能够通电话、看电视。当然，这项工程也包括这个最贫困的黄南州。

　　我在黄南州时，与张欣通电话，经过商量后，我们也决定出资帮助建这所中学和小学，此外，在黄南州还建立一个200万元的奖励基金。这次黄南州的阿州长和教育局局长来北京，与崇文区的学校建立联系的同时，也与我们一起商讨下一步具体的计划和实施细则。

　　虽然我们已经在做这些公益事业，但我觉得只是刚刚开始，做得还太少，但我想借此机会架起一座桥梁，让更多的、生活在东部富裕城市的人们，能更多地了解西部那些生活条件还很差，没有得到改善的人们。也让西部的人们来了解东部。让我们尽自己的力量去帮助那些有困难的人，帮助那些需要教育的孩子们，因为我们是一个大家庭，我们是无法分开的，我们理应互相扶持，互相关爱，而不是任由隔膜和差距无限延伸。

　　这几天，我们公司的许多同事都在帮忙做这件事，包括今天这个简单的仪式和这个项目下一步的实施，大家都在尽自己的力量献出一份自己的爱心。许多媒体朋友听说这个活动后，主动前来参加、报道，对此我们深受感动。但同时，我们也有一位工作能力很强的同事辞职了，他的理由很简单，就是你给别人捐了这么多的钱，为什么不给我涨工资？他心里不平衡。张欣为此心里很难受。的确，他的辞职也给我们的工作造成了一定的影响，但我更觉得我们做的这些事情是有意义的，由此也更觉得我们要把重点放在教育，尤其是美德的教育方面是对的，我们会长期坚持下去。我相信，只要我们更多的人关注公益事业，参加到公益事业中来，我们的世界会更和平，更美好，我们自己的精神也会随之得到更大的进步。
